I cannot say enough great things about SB Screen and Shade! I hired Santa Barbara Screen and Shade to install a double french screen door and was extremely pleased with my experience from start to finish. Kim was very thorough in asking questions about the application and offered several options with a nice selection while guiding me to select the perfect solution. The unit arrived on time and Jason came to install the door. He was extremely friendly, professional, explained to me how he was going to install it, verified some areas before installing and the whole job was done quickly, efficiently and very cleanly. It was a pleasure working with them and I highly recommend them to my friends and family read more

CUSTOMER SERVICE AWARD!!! I have worked with Santa Barbara Screen and Shade multiple times over the last few months for my window covering needs. I have been into their store plenty of times, and have met with quite a few of their sales consultants and office staff. I have nothing but good things to say about their employees! Every time I have entered their store, I have been very kindly greeted, my questions are always listened to with care and answered thoroughly, and I always leave feeling as though I am well taken care of. I give much praise to this company, for I don't see such great customer service as this very often these days. Their store is also a great resource. They have a large gallery of different window covering options. With all kinds of shades and draperies on display, they've got options for any kind of style you may fancy. As someone who first entered their store not knowing much about window coverings, the process of learning about which shades would be most beneficial for my needs was so very smooth and easy! Overall, I can't recommend this company enough if you are looking to have a wonderful experience designing your property, and receive beautiful top quality products! read more

I ordered custom outdoor shades from Santa Barbara Screen & Shade. We were primarily interested in blocking the sun on the south-facing windows, and for the flexibility for future homeowners to remove, replace, or modify these window coverings. The owner, Joe, provided me with a few carefully thought-out design ideas and was conscientious in making the order and installation. This investment was worthwhile -- our cooling costs are down (no need to cool the house if the energy can't get in!), and these well-made, sturdy, unobtrusive shades are our favorite home improvement. I recommend talking to Santa Barbara Screen & Shade to discuss your design ideas and constraints -- they have the expertise to improve it and manifest it. read more

Replaced our 20 year old roman shades with five Hunter Douglas Silhouette Halo shades with blackout liner. Totally automated and controllable with handheld remote or from smartphone with optional hub. Perfect for media room where windows are on opposite wall from media screen. Work perfectly. Can near total darken the room during the day and louver design allows light in during day while blocking glare, Highly recommended. read more

I had 2 screen doors not sliding properly on the tracks. We called our landlord to have it fixed and they sent over SB Screen & Shade. Polo helped us for the estimate AND install. He is professional, friendly, efficient, and knows what he's doing. He even talked to me about options for my home! As the tenant (and not the paying customer) it was a great experience! read more

I called for the SB S&S to install two screen doors after evaluating four other vendors. I found the SB S&S estimate to be the most reasonable. Doug came right on time, I very much appreciate that, to measure the doors. After he finished, I called the office and told them I am ready to put a deposit and to place me on the installation schedule. They checked and they were able to schedule me within 5 calendar days. I was happy with this expedited schedule. The Manager Jason came right on time again and installed the doors in about a half an hour. The doors look good, work smoothly and close tightly. I am a happy customer. I recommend Santa Barbara Screen & Shade for your screen needs. read more

I don't write reviews often, but if I could rate Santa Barbara Screen & Shade higher than a "5", I would do so! Not only do they provide a great selection of shutters, shades and fabrics, their customer service is truly exceptional. Joe, the owner, has come to two different homes of ours to supervise the selection and installation of our window and door coverings. He provided outstanding personalized advice and follow-through, making the process easy. The quality of the materials and installation were excellent. This is a small business that cares about its clients and treats each home or commercial space as its own. It's truly a local gem in Santa Barbara! read more

Love my roller shades!!!! At first I was going to get fabric shades/blinds for our liviging room to block out the south facing sun. Then a friend told me about these roller shades from SB Screen & Shade where it blocks out 95% of the light and still lets a bit of light in. They are very low profile and I love them!!! Linda took her time doing all the measurements and providing a quote. Doug installed them quickly and perfectly level!!! Thank you for the fabulous shades, service and installation! read more

We needed to replace our four sliding screen doors. Going to Santa Barbara Screen and Shade was a wonderful experience!

My mom has been having difficulty sleeping due to ambient light leaking into her bedroom. I considered various ways to block the light coming in from the window, including installing a pull down screen along with light blocking drapes to block any residual light leakage. I visited the store and spoke with Joe, the owner, who was very knowledgeable, having been in this business for many years. Joe recommended a more cost effective solution. Within a short time they had an installer visit my home, take custom measurements and install a top quality light blocking blind. My mom is sleeping much better now. This shop carries Hunter Douglass shades which are US made and meet stringent GREENGUARD standards for low chemical emissions, unlike the less expensive Chinese shades sold online or home improvement stores which can cause a variety of health issues. I would encourage you to visit this store and meet the new owners Joe and wife Kim. They will give you excellent service. read more

This locally owned company is excellent in all ways. My shutters and blinds are perfectly installed. It was a pleasure to work with Steve and the other staff. Steve was so gracious when I realized I had made the wrong choice and changed from shades to shutters even though we had put a lot of time into measurements. He was also coming back more the once to check color to match window paint. It is worth a great deal to be able to go into a local showroom and really see the options with knowledgeable and friendly employees at your disposal. read more

Worth the wait! We ordered Hunter Douglas shutters in July and they were just installed today, wow! So beautiful. When they said it would only take 2 hours to install shutters for 4 windows, I couldn't believe it. Doug showed up right on time, built the frames in the driveway and then installed each one quickly and beautifully. The nail holes are invisible. And it took less than two hours. We are so impressed! On time, done correctly and beautiful product, what more can you ask? He also made sure I knew how to operate the shutters (a few tricks!), clean and maintain them, and register for the warranty. Oh and did I mention I got a text for the appointment with a picture of Doug so I knew who to expect, nice touch! Super glad that a local business does such a nice job -- we will recommend them highly and use them again. read more

Outstanding Service! In any remodel not all things go as expected. With Santa Barbara Screen & Shade, we had an agreement for indoor blinds that didn't work out due to a miscommunication. And what we've found during our remodel; is that when there is an issue (and there will be some), we appreciated most the companies who quickly remedied those issues. How Santa Barbara Screens responded to us should be the gold standard for all companies who wish to be known for excellent service. Our salesman, Steve Walsh, and the owner of the company, Joe, stood by us in every way possible to immediately fix the issue. Due to their excellent service and quality of materials, we then ordered motorized outdoor screens for another section of our home. All went effortlessly well--start to finish. And oh, what a difference these outdoor shades make providing coolness on these hot summer days. Thank You, Joe, Steve and your entire staff! read more

Unbelievable service! Went to "buy" blind lift cord and the woman GAVE it to me for FREE! WHAT!?!? Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I had a really great experience at Santa Barbara Screen & Shade! First off, I loved that it was family owned. It was clear that customer service was of the upmost importance to the new husband and wife owners. I was greeted by a very friendly woman named Asia as soon as I walked in. From the start I knew I was speaking to people with experience. I learned that the owner had been working in the window covering business for many years and was able to show me the real ins and outs of every shade I looked at. The shop was laid out really well, with an impressive showroom and so many window coverings to look at and try out. One entire wall included hundreds of fabric and material samples to look at. I sat down on a cozy couch and browsed the many colors and styles. They showed me another small showroom that they were putting up drapery and accessories, and I was excited because that would be my next project! I also asked about replacing a couple of screens that had been damaged at my house, and I was surprised when they let me know they handmade screens just out back. I spent a good hour and half at the shop, never felt rushed, and was able to take my time in selecting what I wanted. I couldn't be happier with my choice to visit this store. I've found my new window covering shop! read more

They helped us realize our dream. read more

Recommend by a dear friend (retired contractor) who would NOT have said nice things if anything were off. My wife knew exactly what she wanted and SB Screen & Shade took their time to fully understand her vision. One set of windows in the kitchen got plantation shutters (nice!) One small window in the laundry room got min-blinds and one very large window in the master bedroom got a cool, motorized shade we can raise before getting out of bed. "Sunrise!" An excellent experience from start to finish. read more
